Americans Brace For Government Shutdown
The U.S. federal government prepares for a likely shutdown over the weekend after failing to pass a spending bill to fund government employees. Part of the impasse involves House conservatives who are lobbying for spending cuts that likely won’t pass a Democrat-controlled Senate.
In the meantime, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy is under fire, and even some Republican House Members are calling for McCarthy to be replaced. Will McCarthy end up making a deal with the Democrat Senate to keep the government open?
So what happens if the government shuts down? Federal government employees (including U.S. military members) won’t receive paychecks until the government reopens. (They will receive back pay after a resolution is reached.) Government employees whose jobs aren’t essential will be sent home on furlough.
These shutdowns generally hurt the party that’s in charge, and it’s a bad look for America. How do other countries view us when we can’t keep our government offices open? Congress needs to do its job and get a deal reached.
Compound this government shutdown with the Biden impeachment inquiry hearing yesterday and the incessant legal attacks on Donald Trump, and the country is struggling. America must operate from a position of strength, which it isn’t doing right now. What kind of message is being sent to the American people and to the world?
